Lazy Dazy Weekend

We have had such a wonderful lazy weekend! I couldn’t do it ever weekend, but every once in a while is perfect.

Friday night I took my baby sis Chandler (17) out to teach her how to drive a standard….she did surprisingly well for her first time. She has the shifting down pact, and stalled a few times at stop signs…..we even had to different vehicles stop to make sure we were ok, ( they thought we had broken down Ha!) We just laughed and told them she was learning to drive a stick and thank you. It was a lot of fun….we stayed on back roads, and went down some we had never been down before…..and ended up on a very long, very muddy, dirt road. PEI has a lot of these red dirt road (hence my blog title :) ) and this time of year they are really bad. We thought it would only be a short road so we drove on it……15 minutes later and my hand was sore from grasping the HOLY CRAP handle…lol 

We couldn’t stop to switch drivers because we would have gotten stuck, and neither of us had brought a cell phone, and it was way out in the sticks…..so we would have had a long walk to get help….and we couldn’t turn around ….and all I could say was Chandler keep us out of the ditch and remember mud like this is just as slippery as ice. She got us threw it…and we vowed never to go on back roads we didn't know again….well this time of year anyway.

This is a good dirt road compared to the one we drove on….lol

Saturday we did nothing, I did a little laundry and the kids played outside. Blaine & I went out Saturday night to a small gathering at some new friends of ours. There were 4 couples including us there. It was a fun time! We got home around 2am and went straight to bed. Chandler was babysitting and had stayed the night so she got up with the girls this morning and got them breakfast and let us sleep in. It was nice! Thanks Chandler!

This is Chandler, I have mentioned her a few times, so here is a face to the name.
